Abstract This invention relates generally to a strip of chance tickets and method of making the same, which ticket strip comprises an elongated composite or double layered strip which may be wrapped in roll form. The composite strip comprises a base and a cover strip whose longitudinal edges are coated with adhesive material. The central portion of the ticket is stamped with numbers at random, such as by an Addressograph machine. The top or cover strip has longitudinal perforations along the inner border line of the base strip adhesive material and is adhered to the base strip. Therefore, upon tearing along the top perforations, a central panel portion of the top strip can be detached so that the numbers of the bottom strip will be exposed. A base sheet is formed having longitudinal strips integrally secured along their side edges with transverse perforations and relatively large holes between tickets. The random numbers are then stamped thereon. The covering sheet is longitudinally perforated and adhered to the base sheet. Finally, the adhered covering sheet and base sheet are longitudinally slit into separate ticket strips which are wrapped into roll form.
THE METHOD OF MAKING CHANCE TICKETS IN STRIP FORM, COMPRISING FORMING A BASE SHEET COMPRISING A PLURALITY OF LONGITUDINAL STRIP BASE PORTION INTEGRALLY SECURED TOGETHER ALONG THEIR SIDE EDGES AND HAVING TRANSVERSE PERFORATIONS AND RELATIVELY LARGE HOLES BETWEEN TICKETS TO PROVIDE SEMI-CIRCULAR CUT-OUTS ON LONGUTUDINAL ADJOINING TICKETS, IMPRINTING RANDOM MEMBERS ALONG THE LONGITUDINAL CENTRAL PORTIONS OF SAID STRIP BASE PORTIONS, PERFORATING A SEPARATE CORRESPONDING COVERING SHEET INWARDLY OF THE LONGITUDINAL EDGES OF COVERING STRIP PORTIONS, CORRESPONDING TO THE STRIP BASE PORTIONS, ALONG CONTINUOUS LINES ON BOTH SIDES OF THE CENTERS OF SAID COVERING STRIP PORTIONS WHILE SAID COVERING SHEET IS LIGHTLY ADHERED TO A CARRIER STRIP, THEREAFTER REMOVING SAID CARRIER STRIP AND ADHERING THE PERFORATED COVERING STRIP PORTIONS ONLY ALONG THE LONGITUDINAL EDGES OF SAID BASE STRIP PORTIONS SO AS TO COVER, WITHOUT
